Solo Swordmaster

Chapter 1044

#Side Story 13. Even if a loyalist has no partner (3)

* * *

‘…How did it end up like this?’

Small but delicate earrings.

An elegant necklace made of silver.

Even a dress with an open back.

Frea, a blue-haired woman dressed up instead of the uniform she always wore, sighed softly.

Of course, as she was the Grand Admiral of the British Empire before becoming Rose’s close associate, she was accustomed to wearing dresses and attending parties.

But this was my first time at such an awkward party.

It wasn’t just that it was so blatant that it was practically a group meeting with only good-looking men and women.

Even before she became a close associate, she had been attracting attention everywhere, but at this party, she was not receiving attention at all.

In fact, she wasn’t the only one.

Most of the other associates also felt left out.

And there is one reason.

This is because only one participant captured the attention of everyone at the party.

Tall and tall like a model.

Long, stretched out limbs.

A slender waist that can be held in one hand.

White and fair skin without any blemishes.

In addition, dresses that are tight to the body and clearly show off the slender body are not enough, so there are even dresses that open up the abdomen and pelvis and highlight the white skin.

That body is literally perfect.

It was such a fantastic body that even women were mesmerized by the coexistence of the firmness of the muscles and the slenderness of the female body.

But even that was nothing compared to his face.

Long, elegant eyebrows.

Red and seductive lips.

High, delicate nose bridge.

Even big, clear eyes.

The beauty combined with everything is flawless.

Even if you tried to find a place to criticize, of course there wasn’t one, and you would end up being possessed.

She was attracting everyone’s attention with her beauty that was not only flawless but even violent.

“Ugh, this dress is expensive and I’m so uncomfortable… After all, military uniforms are the best clothes.”

…Even the animal’s ears sticking out on its head or the tail fluttering behind its buttocks are seen as decorations that enhance its beauty.

So others, of course.

Freya thought to herself as she looked at Nadia, a blonde beauty who was unfamiliar to them even though they had seen it all the time.

The unemployed type is also a fraud.

It was the power of her determination to fight that transformed the scruffy girl who always wore baggy military uniforms into this peerless beauty.

Of course she knew.

The beast king body (????) is a medicine that strengthens the body, but has no particular beauty effect.

In other words, that beauty was something Nadia was born with.

‘Now that I think about it, she was a mixed race member of the Golden Dragon clan.’

Perhaps it is because of the fiery charm of the Red Dragon Clan added to the perfection of the Golden Dragon Clan.

Until now, no one knew about the battlefield because most of it was covered in blood and gunpowder dust.

When Freya is once again amazed at

Nadia, who boasts a beauty that can be compared to that of the princesses… or in fact, the most perfect Charlotte or the Sword Master.

The music that was gently flowing at the party suddenly became louder and more colorful.

It’s something else!

‘Dance song? suddenly?’

I was momentarily taken aback by the variations of the song, which were not only flashy but even noisy.

The participants soon came to their senses.

It was only then that I remembered that this party was not Nadia’s appreciation party, but a party that also doubled as a group meeting.

In that sense.

It was natural that they, who had been mesmerized until now, began to move in unison.

“If it’s okay with you, would you give me the honor of being the first to dance?”

“yes?”

And, as expected from a great master, the blonde young man was the first to approach him and ask for a dance.

Looking at Dane A. Morgan, Nadia blinked unexpectedly.

“Uh, is that what you said to me?”

“Yes, Lady.”

“Hmm, does that mean you have a crush on me?”

“…That’s the way it is.”

Maybe it’s because I’ve never experienced anything like this during my normal days.

Nadia, who was trying to scratch her head as usual, remembered that she had tidied up her hair, flinched and stopped her hand, and after a moment of thought, she asked.

“Well then, what is your income?”

“My income… are you talking about?”

“yes. “I appreciate your interest in me, but I have no intention of seriously dating someone whose income is too low.”

This may be because he is familiar with military-style speech, as he only followed Hasneti around the battlefield.

Nadia asked a question that was both direct and absurd.

“It is indeed worth it. “My income is approximately this amount.”

But Dane naturally accepted her question.

This was not surprising among the Golden Dragon Clan, who valued wealth and authority as they were the most arrogant and greedy among the Seven Dragons.

That’s why I like Nadia’s attitude more, even though she is of mixed race, and is very much like the Golden Dragon Clan.

He confidently wrote down his child’s income on a business card and showed it only to her.

“Uh… is this all there is to it?”

“….”

and.

It hardened.

“oh! Oh, I’m sorry. Come to think of it, prices and exchange rates are a mess right now, right? Moreover, I forgot that the financial industry, the main business of the Morgan family, was particularly hit hard.”

Why?

What makes that consideration even more heartbreaking.

Moreover, Nadia struck the final blow to his heart.

“Well, sorry anyway. “I’m not interested unless the income is a little more or the person is trustworthy enough to replace the income.”

“Are you saying I don’t seem trustworthy?”

“Yes, that’s me…”

After a short hesitation.

Nadia spoke honestly.

“I’m sorry, but you look so weak.”

“….”

“Hmm, I think I could have danced if I had at least reached the sergeant level…. I guess I’m a little bit at the great master level….”

Dane was reduced to ashes like that.

Those who saw it realized.

She is a noblewoman of the Red Dragon Clan.

In the long history of the Seven Dragons, excluding princesses, she is the youngest to reach the rank of servant, and is a genius who boasts dazzling talent beyond her beauty

… That it is a noble flower.

“ha ha ha. If that’s the case, there’s nothing we can do. “It seems like he wasn’t meant to be with me.”

“I hope you find a better relationship.”

“…Thank you for your words.”

Still, as expected of one of the best players in the Golden Dragon clan, Dane quickly recovered his spirit.

Then, with a smile on his face, he stepped back from Nadia and gritted his teeth.

No matter how pretty and outstanding they are.

After all, he is half-mixed race.

He scolded himself for not being his mate, who inherited the pure blood of the Golden Dragon Clan, but his face hardened.

This is because the sympathy mixed with the other participants’ gazes toward him hurt Dane’s pride, which was arrogant as expected from the Golden Dragon clan.

That was why.

How can we resolve this disgrace?

As he looked around, thinking furiously, his eyes lit up when he saw other aides at the party.

He decided that if he could build a good relationship with his other close associates, he could pass off his criticism of Nadia as an affair.

“Lady, if you don’t mind, would you give me the honor of dancing with you?”

In that sense.

It was inevitable that Dane would ask Freah to a dance.

Even though she had the disadvantage of being a bit stubborn, Freya was famous for her noble and gentle personality, as befits the Blue Dragon Clan.

Even though she wasn’t from the Golden Dragon clan, she was definitely qualified to be his partner, and even if she wasn’t used to parties, she would at least accept a dance.

“I’m sorry, but that might be a bit difficult.”

“…yes?”

That was why.

The reason Dane was dumbfounded.

Freya, who was looking at him with a slightly troubled expression, suddenly spoke with a serious expression.

“Lord Morgan, I am the admiral of the Blue Dragon Clan and a close associate of the Blue Dragon Princess.”

“I know that, but…”

“That’s why I can’t have you as a companion unless you’re someone who can help the princess with everything I have without regard for self-interest.”

“….”

“If Lord Morgan donates all his assets, leaves the family, and swears loyalty to the Blue Dragon Princess, I think he might consider this marriage proposal… but would that be possible?”

He just asked for a dance, so why did it turn into a marriage proposal?

Dane, who was taken aback, stiffened.

Because I realized it.

From the moment he affirmed Nadia’s question about whether asking for a dance was an expression of affection, his request for a dance soon became an act of blatant courtship.

And I don’t know if it’s anyone else.

It is also natural for his close associates, who must avoid gossip, to be cautious about his dance requests.

So, after sweating and thinking about whether I should donate all my money to get the chance to propose.

Dane eventually lowered his head.

“…That might be a bit difficult.”

“I’m sorry.”

It seems like he already expected it.

Frea calmly turned her back without any sign of disappointment.

Dane, who swallowed dryly while looking at the back, hurriedly headed towards Arbella and Barbara.

Ssanghwa of the Green Dragon Clan is a great master-level expert like themselves.

He was hoping that there might be a chance since he was the lowest among his associates, but…

“I am so honored that you would choose me next to the nobleman and the admiral, and I don’t know how to repay you for this favor, so I will refuse.”

“…I guess you know how the Morgans view us since you asked me to the dance after being rejected by my sister.”

After accumulating unnecessary grudges against the close associates of the Green Dragon clan, who were already strict about receiving silver, he was kicked out.

He turned to the one-armed beauty with a miserable feeling.

If you’re an iron-blooded maid of the Silver Dragon clan, you’re the next crazy bitch after the Silver Dragon Princess.

Even at this party, you could see his madness just by looking at him wearing a maid uniform, but he was in no position to hide anything further.

On the contrary, since he is such a crazy person, he might at least dance with her…

“If you can make it fun whenever the princess is bored, I will gladly dance. Instead, if you bore the princess, I will kill you.”

After all, crazy bitches are not the same thing.

After realizing the obvious truth, the last person he went to was Tata.

Although he is a bit older, his 30s are the prime time for a professional level expert who ages slowly.

In fact, he only looks like he’s in his 20s, and given his age, I wonder if he’s that picky…

“I’m sorry. This Tata is not a participant in this party, but the host. “I have no intention of marrying anyone in the first place, so please find someone else.”

…This is what despair is like.

Dane, who no longer had any close associates to ask for dances, ended up being the last close associate present, feeling like he was being dragged to the execution site.

At the same time, he turned to the person he least wanted to face…

“Dane, I sincerely ask you to do this. “Please just lose respect for your family and just stay quiet.”

“…i get it.”

Ellis P. Morgan.

At the request of a relative who had destroyed him in every way since he was young, he had no choice but to curl up in the corner of the party.

The participants who saw him pathetically sipping whiskey realized something new.

A nobleman of the Red Dragon clan.

The twin flowers of the green dragon clan.

The leader of the White Dragon Clan.

Blue Admiral of the Blue Dragon Clan. From

the iron-blooded maid of the silver dragon clan

to the all-round flawless of the gold dragon clan.

It’s just that it’s not noticeable because it’s always with the absolute princess.

Because he is the best among his clan, he is always by the princess’s side and is the only one who is even allowed to go against the princess’s orders for her sake.

They are not like flowers on a cliff that anyone can pick by simply climbing up.

That he is a noble lion on top of an impregnable fortress that mercilessly crushes anyone who approaches him carelessly.
